Q:
The yearly production of a 6 foot orange tree is 24 pounds of oranges. A 15 foot tree produces 80 pounds. Let H represent the height of an orange tree and p the number of pounds of oranges produced.
a). List the ordered pairs. (H.P)
What is the ordered pair for the first tree?
(6,24)
What is the ordered pair for the second tree:
(15,80)
B. Find the point-slope form of an equation of the line through the two ordered pairs.
p - 24 = 56/9 (h - 6)
C. Use the equation from part b)to predict the number of pounds of oranges produced by an 18 foot tree; a 20 foot tree.
What is the predicted production of an 18 foot tree?
What is the predicted production of an 20 foot tree?
